Verbs are your Friend!
By Rachel and Emma
Run, ran, sing, sang
walk, talk, do
Verbs describe actions!
Taste, smell, feel, look
Verbs describe senses!
Adverbs describe verbs,
verbs describe actions,
actions effect nouns!
Verbs describe things that be,
Without them, things would be as boring as a tree.
Verbs describe actions, things that be, and senses.
You can see what you can see, all because of verbs!
You can do what you can do, all because of verbs!
Verbs, Verbs, Verbs, Verbs, All because of VERBS!
How is a verb used in a sentence?-It is not used in the subject part of a sentence. For example, John went to the park. Went is the verb!
How is it connected to other parts of speech?- Adverbs: Words that describe verbs. Nouns: People, places, things, and ideas. Verbs show the actions of nouns. Pronouns: Words that take place of nouns. Verbs show the actions of pronouns.
Five places for good grammar: 1. Billboards advertising items. 2. Important speeches. 3. Job application. 4. Essays on the SATs. 5. Meetings for work.
Five examples of bad grammar and what you think the effect is on the writing: 1. On a Pizza Hut sign, they wrote “Customer’s”. (from http://www.funnytypos.com/tag/bad-grammar/) 2. “I knowed I made a good choice.” (In Cars.) 3. “I eated my food.” (Max) 4. “I runned to the store.” (Rachel) 5. “I readed me an omazingly wonderfulness book.” Megan and Rachel.
